Nikky: I need to get some pastries(面粉糕饼) for my Heather, his stomach is growling now(它的肚子在咕咕叫了)
【注】his stomach is growling马上用出去!/ my stomach is growling now!
Brian: ok
Nikky: back now
Brian: but how did u handle with him, I mean to get along with it at the same house?
Nikky: no, he got a very cozy (舒适的,安逸的)room, more comfortable than mine
Brian: what about when he poos and pees everywhere? (如果它到处大小便怎么办?)
【注】poos and pees特指动物大小便,自从和nikky谈起过养宠物后,我对养宠物有了过一次短暂的切身体验,上个月的时候,我买了一个非常漂亮的小狼狗,就象nikky刚刚把heather抱回来时候的大小,刚刚一个月,让我爱不释手,但是不到一个星期就因为它到处大小便弄的整个屋里味道实在是让人受不了,忍痛把这个小家伙送给别人了。
Nikky: he is not an infant (婴儿) now, I told him to do the poos and pees in his special toilet, so this will be out of question (它上厕所应该不成问题)
Brian: that's pretty good, how did u spend ur last two days, nikky, went somewhere?
Nikky: I went to my brother's home where is in the country, a small farmhouse , it was raining these two days
Brian: really, here in shanghai we got the rain two
Nikky: the world weather looks the same(天下天气都一样呀)
Brian:, how did it like?
Nikky: ehhh, my stay at the farm proved wonderful in spite of the cold rain which fell most of the time, every time when I was there, I was treated like a queen
Brian: who treat u that way?
Nikky: the host, my sister in-law(嫂子)
Brian: u must have fun
Nikky: we were laughing and joking and I've never eaten so much good, rich food in my life
Brian: destroy ur plan to lose weight(破坏了你减肥的计划)
Nikky: brian, every time when I am out of town or on a trip I lost weight , but this time is different
Brian: what did u eat?
Nikky: a huge numbers of things: beef , lamb, and red wine.
Brian: a lot of meat, no vegetables?
Nikky: we got home-grown vegetables(自家种的菜)
Brian: do u like meat?
Nikky: meat works out neither good nor bad to me, I just eat the lean meat(精瘦肉)only
Brian: no fat
Nikky: yes
Brian: I've heard that Americans will have some, u know, pavlova(奶油水果蛋白饼), or fruit after dinner, is it right for u?
Nikky: yes, we have nuts and fruit---umm, and we talked about u, brian , my friend
Brian: me? What u talk about
Nikky: my friend, from ancient China, special for me, and they know about u
Brian: thank u
Nikky: u r velcome
【注】nikky的这个无意中的笔误让我想起一则故事:
an elderly jewish(犹太人的)couple, on their way to a vacation in Hawaii(夏威夷)got into an argument about the correct pronunciation of Hawaii: he was sure it was Havaii, but she maintained it was Hawaii. As soon as they got off the plane, they ran over to the first person they saw‘Hi there,'said the husband,‘would u mind telling me how u pronounce the name of this island?'‘havaii,'the man replied,‘thank u'said the husband, gloating. (幸灾乐祸)‘u're velcome'the man replied'
